The Israeli Occupation Forces (IOF) are continuing their unrelenting genocide on Gaza, killing more civilians by the day and deepening the deliberate humanitarian nightmare.
Gaza’s Health Ministry confirmed that four more Palestinians died from hunger in the past 24 hours, pushing the number of starvation victims since the start of Israel’s war on Gaza to 239. Among them are 106 children.
Since dawn, IOF strikes have killed at least 23 Palestinians, including 10 who were simply trying to collect desperately needed food aid.
The attacks targeted Gaza City and an aid distribution point near Rafah in southern Gaza.
Aid barely enters the besieged enclave, and when it does, it immediately turns into a bloodbath.
Natasha Davies, a nursing activity manager with Doctors Without Borders (MSF), told Al Jazeera that the trickle of supplies is “a drop in the ocean.”
She said that aid distribution points as “slaughter masquerading as aid,” where vulnerable Palestinians are met with IOF gunfire and bombs.
The genocide is also taking its toll at multiple other levels. UN experts accuse Israel of carrying out “medicide,” the systematic destruction of Gaza’s health system, the senseless killing of doctors and nurses, and the starvation of the sick and wounded.
Hospitals lie in ruins, medical convoys face IOF attacks, and patients die waiting for care that never comes.
Gaza’s Health Ministry reports that Israel’s war has killed at least 61,722 Palestinians and wounded 154,525 more.
The genocide in Gaza grows more brutal with each passing day, with the IOF showing no restraint in their killings of civilians and those trying to report the truth.
In one recent atrocity, IOF forces targeted a tent outside Gaza’s Al Shifa hospital, obliterating the lives of six journalists, five of them working for Al Jazeera.
